Each day is a face with two sides Do or die Failure is an ointment Swarmed by flies Lies birthed from larva Contempt bred from pride The caterpillar cocooned is consumed Blind to the future Either monarch or moth Led astray by the flame

Monarchs and Moths
Each day is a face with two sides Do or die Failure is an ointment Swarmed by flies Lies birthed from larva Contempt bred from pride The caterpillar cocooned is consumed Blind to the future Either monarch or moth Led astray by the flame
The world we don't see, is often the world most worth our attention.
